Description:
------------
The ini parser crashes with when a directive like

zend_extension = ${extension_dir}"/xcache.so"


is found in the configuration file, this has worked in all versions since 5.1 but fails now.

Reproduce code:
---------------
zend_extension = ${extension_dir}"/foo.so" in php.ini


This only crashes at startup in apache 2

Expected result:
----------------
No crash

Actual result:
--------------

I would guess it crashes with any option name and value when the ini 
setting is not set. f.e.

foobar = ${thisdoesnotexist}

should also crash..?
 [2009-09-26 11:56 UTC] jani@php.net 
I'm also assuming it does not crash with CGI or CLI binaries? :)
 [2009-09-26 12:02 UTC] crrodriguez at opensuse dot org 
No crash with CGI or CLI, and extension_dir *is* set in php.ini.
 [2009-09-26 12:06 UTC] crrodriguez at opensuse dot org 
and yes, foobar = ${thisdoesnotexist} crashes.

note that in previous versions ${extension_dir} expanded correctly.
 [2009-11-25 12:22 UTC] jani@php.net 
It does also crash with 5.2 branch.
